Product Overview

The MobileView 7000 Series Recorders include the 7001 Network Video Recorder (NVR)

and 7001H Hybrid Network Video Recorder. Each model supports up to sixteen (16)

audio/visual inputs, and optional equipment such as a status/tag indicator, GPS antenna, and

wireless networking devices. The 7001 NVR supports IP audio/visual devices only. The

7001H Hybrid NVR supports any combination of IP or analog audio/visual inputs up to

MobileView 7000 Series User Manual 2

sixteen (16) total and optimizes front and rear ports and connectors to improve installation

time and eliminate redundancy.

The central component of the MobileView system is a high-quality recorder. It records

time-stamped data for up to 16 IP or analog cameras, up to 12 digital inputs, and two analog

inputs. The amount of surveillance information the recorder can store is determined by

storage capacity of the main media caddy, the resolution and the frame rate settings of IP or

analog cameras, and the total operational hours in a day. The recorder captures video

within 90 seconds of receiving the vehicle ignition signal. The recorder continues to capture

data while the signal is present and for a defined period after the vehicle ignition signal

ends. Surveillance and event-based video data is stored on a removable media caddy. When

storage capacity is full, the recorder automatically overwrites the oldest data with the new

data in a FIFO (first-in, first-out) order.

Recorders use MobileView Navigator to review surveillance and event-based video stored

on the removable media caddy. Wi-Fi allows for automatic video transfer and downloads

using the Depot Manager software. Recorders include a built-in web server to configure

operating parameters.

A MobileView system consists of the recording device, cameras, and any optional

equipment.

Aviation connectors implement a screw-down knurl and relies on a high friction

coefficient to remain locked in place.

Molex connectors are from the Micro-Fit family and employ a positive latching

ramp mechanism to lock the connector in place.

Reviewing Stored Images

The 7000 Series recorders convert information from IP and/or analog AV inputs into digital

format and store it onto the removable media caddy. This data is exported or reviewed by a

Video Review Station running MobileView Depot Manager software. The recorder

connects to the Video Review Station through a network connection. The Video Review

station is generally a laptop or desktop computer running a compatible Windows operating

system. When connected to the recorder, users can view and export live and recorded

surveillance data, check logs, and retrieve device health diagnostics. Most of these

functions are available when connected to the recorder media caddy.

Refer to MobileView Depot Manager guides for video review station requirements, a list of

compatible software, and more information on how to retrieve and view images from the

recorder and media caddy.

Chapter 2 Installation and Wiring

Network Video Recording System

The MobileView 7000 Series recorder is designed for installation on public transit vehicles.

Components of the recorder assembly

1. Recorder main housing

2. Recorder storage caddy

Locating the Recorder

Recorders are normally mounted in the vehicle’s electronics enclosure. These enclosures

vary in size and location, depending on the vehicle make and model and provide enough

space for the recorder. For most vehicles, this is located behind the driver, and is typically

lockable and climate controlled. When deciding the location of the recorder, ensure space is

protected against liquid and foreign material intrusion, and provides enough ventilation to

maintain a 0 to 55°C operating temperature range. For lower temperature down to -20°C

the device implements an integrated heater used to bring the temperature of the device to an

operating range within 20 minutes.

Mounting the Recorder

The MobileView 7000 Series recorders are designed to resist shock and vibration forces

commonly observed on a transit vehicle. Resistance to specific levels are only obtained

Page 17: MobileView 7000 Series User Manual · 7001 FRONT PANEL..... 4 7001H FRONT PANEL ... audio/visual inputs, and optional equipment such as a status/tag indicator, GPS antenna, and wireless

MobileView 7000 Series User Manual 9

when the recorder is secured to a stationary (with respect to the vehicle), vibration-resistant,

horizontal surface. Mounting the recorder in a way that does not meet these requirements

may result in undesired performance.

To mount the recorder:

1. On a flat, stationary, and vibration-resistant surface, use the recorder base as a template

to mark and drill four mounting holes.

2. Using bolts, locking washers, and nuts, mount the recorder base plate to the vehicle

surface.

Mounting the recorder

1. Mounting bolts

2. Main housing

To resist vibration, use nuts with a thread locking compound or a self-locking nylon insert.

Failure to use such devices may result in insecure mounting and damage to the unit.

Attaching Recorder Hardware

Use the following information to attach field wires directly to connectors. Harnesses provide an easy

way to connect and disconnect the recorder from the vehicle for service, maintenance, or repair.

Connectors must be fully seated and each screw down tightly to ensure the connector remains in place

during normal operation.

WARNING: The installer is responsible to power off the recorder before connections are made.

Check all power connections for shorts and grounds before applying power. Failure to follow this

recommendation may result in damage to the vehicle or the recorder, including injury to the

installation personnel.

Harness connections

Harness connections to the recorder are made on the rear panel.

Connector Removal

The recorders P6 and P connections employ a locking mechanism to ensure connection to the recorder

during operation. Connectors are logistically difficult to remove. To remove a connector, fully

disengage the locking mechanism and gently rock the connector side to side while pulling the

connector away from the recorder chassis. The connector eventually pulls free.

MobileView 7000 Series User Manual 11

Connections

Connectors and harnesses are used to connect power cables and other parts to the MobileView

system.

P1 and P1A harness connections

The P1/P1A harness joins a 6-pin Molex type connector to the circular P1/P1A connector. This

assembly provides dedicated termination points for main power, ground, and ignition. Common and

specific usage of each termination point is provided in the following table. Looping outputs may be

used to power and control other MobileView devices or additional equipment. Attach the power

cable to the rear panel with six pins.

Harness P1 applies to the 7001 recorder and implements a 5A fuse. Harness P1A applies to the

7001H recorder and implements a 12A fuse. The bigger fuse allows powering analog cameras

connected to the 7001H.

Power input connections

Main power, ground, and ignition are supplied from the vehicle sources to the three-terminal Molex

connector labeled J1 on the P1/P1A harness. In addition to integrated harness fuses, we recommend

external inline fusing with the main power and ignition inputs displayed below. Adjust main fuse size

to accommodate the installed recorder model.

MobileView 7000 Series User Manual 12

Connecting the Power

1. Run a three-conductor 16 AWG cord from the vehicle power, electrical ground, and ignition

source locations to the recorder.

Note: Adding inline, fast-blow fuses to the main power and ignition inputs is recommended.

2. With the vehicle power off, connect to the vehicle power and ignition sources.

Contact the vehicle manufacturer for information on connecting to the vehicle power source.

3. At the recorder, remove the P1/P1A connector.

4. Terminate power, ignition, and ground wires to the proper terminal of a mating Molex

connector.

5. Connect the mating Molex connector to the J1 connector on the P1/P1A harness.

6. Before reattaching the P1/P1A connector to the recorder, turn on the vehicle power and use a

voltmeter to check each Molex terminal for proper voltage and polarity.

Main power and ignition voltages should be nominal 12 or 24 VDC.

Note: MobileView 7000 Series recorder supports nominal SAE vehicle voltages of 12 and

24 VDC.

7. After confirming voltages and polarities are correct, remove vehicle power, plug the P1/P1A

connector into the recorder, and tighten the retaining ring.

8. Check all connections before starting vehicle power.

Battery disconnect systems

Many vehicles incorporate a source disconnect device, also called a battery disconnect or knife

switch. The device removes power to noncritical systems during routine maintenance or to stop long-

term battery drain. When the recorder is connected to a device, it is subject to immediate and

uncontrolled loss of power. Uncontrolled power loss can negatively affect expected system

performance. The recorder avoids this by implementing an internal UPS, designed to keep the system

operational for 3-7 seconds after all power is lost. This allows the device plenty of time to stop any

open processes and close files in preparation for power loss.

Power connections

The recorder implements 12 VDC output on the P6 harness as part of digital, analog, and status

circuits. The current for these connections is limited to 1A.

Relay output

Relay contacts are shown in their de-energized state and are rated for 200 mA maximum current

draw.

Analog input

The recorder provides two analog inputs. These inputs convert continuous voltage detected at the

terminal into a separate numeric representation of the direct value. The system can be configured to

trigger a response when the number rises above or below a set point. Analog input can be used to

track temperature fluctuations on key vehicle systems.

Not all monitored vehicles provide a voltage output. When one is not available, use a conversion

device with corresponding voltage output.

Page 25: MobileView 7000 Series User Manual · 7001 FRONT PANEL..... 4 7001H FRONT PANEL ... audio/visual inputs, and optional equipment such as a status/tag indicator, GPS antenna, and wireless

MobileView 7000 Series User Manual 17

The analog to digital converter on the recorder is a 12-bit device supporting up to 4096 separate set

points. Set points range from 0 to 4096 and correspond to an input voltage range of 0 to 30 VDC. If

the full-scale input voltage is less than 30 VDC, only a corresponding range of the 4096 set points are

available.

If the full-scale input is greater than 30 VDC, the input voltage must be reduced to a point within the

supported range. Use a voltage divider network to reduce voltage.

Voltage divider, analog input

In the previous figure, a certain amount of the input voltage (Vin) is used across resistor R1. The

remaining voltage (Vout) is routed and monitored by the analog input. The installer is responsible for

determining the proper values of R1 and R2 based on specified voltage input variables.

The value of VOUT is determined by the following formula.

Vout = (R2 * Vin) / (R1 + R2)

Since recorder analog inputs support a maximum voltage input of 30 VDC, VOUT is always 30 VDC.

For most applications, R2 is set to 10 kΩ and the value of Vin is the full scale value of the voltage

input to be measured. Solving the previous equation for variable R1 allows simple calculation of its

required value.

R1 = (R2 * Vin / Vout) - R2

In the previous example, to monitor a 40 VDC variable input using a recorder analog input would

require an R1 of 3.3 kΩ with an R2 of 10 kΩ.

R1 = (R2 * Vin / Vout) - R2

R1 = (10 kΩ * 40 VDC / 30 VDC) – 10 kΩ

R1 = 3.3 kΩ

Special Concepts

Modify an event to trigger an alarm in the following ways.

Disable if active at startup: When selected, the device ignores an input if it is active during

system boot. This helps eliminate undesired event activations if an input is wired or

configured incorrectly. If the input changes to inactive, the input is no longer ignored.

Trigger Mask Duration: Once an input triggers an event, subsequent activation of the same

input can be ignored for the duration defined by the Trigger Mask Time. This feature ensures

only one occurrence of the event occurs during the specified time.

Trigger Delay Duration: This value requires the input remain active for the specified period

before the event can trigger. This feature monitors inputs normally fluctuating between active

and inactive state over a short duty cycle but lock into active state when in fully active.

Notification Pages

Notification configuration settings provide an alert for conditions requiring attention.

System Alarms

Configure system alarms and alert parameters using System Alarms. Active system alarms are

displayed on the LCD of the Exception menu and transmitted using the J1939 interface extension

when enabled. System alarms are ignored unless the Report check box is selected.

Alarm Settings

The Alarms option includes configuration settings related to inputs and outputs monitored by the

device. These include digital inputs (alarm inputs), relay outputs (alarm outputs), acceleration alarms,

and J1939 message alarms.

Alarm Inputs

Use the Alarm Inputs option to configure when digital (discrete) and analog (variable) inputs are

considered active. The active state of an input is used to trigger events. The page also automatically

updates the current activation state of each input according to the configuration setting.

Digital Inputs: Digital inputs are relays or switches having a defined normal state of open

(OFF) or closed (ON). Digital inputs monitor for the presence (closed) or absence (open) of a

voltage. Voltage range and values are shown below.

o 0VDC – 5V = Open (Off)

o 5VDC – 6V = No state guarantee

o 6VDC – 36V = Closed (ON)

o 40V = Max voltage before damage

Analog Inputs: Analog inputs are sensors without a single defined ON or OFF state such as

pressure, lever position, and fuel level sensors. These devices have a set value triggering an

action. Analog inputs activate when the current value is higher or lower than the set value.

Accelerometer

The Accelerometer option configures how acceleration alarms are processed. Acceleration alarms are

also called Driver Behavior alarms since they are generally activated based on how an operator drives.

Each alarm represents a fixed acceleration profile. Hard Turn for example represents a lateral

(sideways) acceleration over a long period of time while Swerve represents the same lateral

acceleration over a short period of time. Hard brake uses a front to rear acceleration profile. Click the

check box to trigger an event or turn on the recorder fault LED.

CAUTION: Because acceleration alarms are dependent upon motion in defined directions,

device mounting orientation must be considered and configured. The Notifications G Sensor

section has additional information.

J1939 Message Type

J1939 messages can be grouped into types. Assign a 16 character descriptive name to each message

type. Message types can be used as a trigger for an event. The descriptive name entered here is used

wherever message type is referenced. Click Apply when completed.

Note: Only J1939 messages representing digital values (On/Off) can be used to trigger an event.

J1939 Type Assignment

Categorize J1939 messages into types. Up to 4 message types are allowed as shown in the drop-down

list next to each message. Messages of the same type can be used to trigger an event. Assign a type to

each message. Click Apply when completed.

Note: J1939 messages representing digital values (On/Off) are preceded with (D). Although

digital and non-digital messages can be assigned to the same type, only digital messages can be

used to trigger an event.

Chapter 6 Use Cases

The following scenarios may be useful in a work environment.

Screen Snaps

Screen snaps of each video tile are available from the Video Live page. A screen snap records the

visible items displayed at a given time. These are especially useful when setting up cameras with a

customer and deciding on the angle of the camera. Once the camera is set in place, take a screen snap

of the image display. Give the customer a print out of the snap and verify this is what the customer

expects to view from the camera before completing the setup process.

Camera Device List

Click Camera and Manage IP Devices. All of the cameras expected to be found should display in

the list. If any new cameras are set to defaults, they can be easily found and added to the list by using

the finder utility. Click Finder. On the Device/Finder window, click Refresh. Any new cameras

display in the list. If a camera is already in the list, it does not display in the finder.

Deciding Video Stream

When choosing a type of video stream to select, we recommended using Alternate. If the customer

prefers still shots, alternates are sufficient. If they are requesting video, select Primary or Alarm

stream.

Install a Wireless Card

A wireless card comes with a plate. Using a screwdriver, remove the plate and install the wireless

card.

Glossary

DHCP: DHCP is the acronym of Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, and it is one of the

TCP/IP protocol stacks. It assigns the dynamic IP address to the host on the network.

Dual Stream: Dual stream is a technology recording high resolution video locally while

transmitting a lower resolution stream over the network.

eSATA: eSATA is the acronym for External Serial Advanced Technology Attachment and is an

extension to the Serial ATA standard that enables SATA drives to be attached externally.

GNSS: A satellite navigation system is a system of satellites providing autonomous geo-spatial

positioning with global coverage. It allows small electronic receivers to determine their location

(longitude, latitude, and altitude) to high precision (within a few meters) using time signals

transmitted along a line of sight by radio from satellites. The signals allow the electronic receivers

to calculate the current local time to high precision, and time synchronization. A satellite

navigation system with global coverage may be termed GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite

System).

GPS: GPS (Global Positioning System) is a space-based global navigation satellite system

providing location and time information in all weather and anywhere on or near the earth, having

an unobstructed line of sight of 4 or more GPS satellite.

G-Sensor: (Gravity-sensor) can sense the change of the accelerated force, shaking, free falling

and lifting. Those changes of the accelerated force are sensed by the G-sensor by means of

electrical signals, and link certain action according to the changes of the electrical signals. When

applied in the hard disk protection, G-Sensor can check the current status of the hard disk in case

of the affection of the R/W function by the sudden change of the accelerated force.

NTP: NTP is Network Time Protocol, and it is a protocol synchronizing the computer time.

NVR: Network video recorder.

USB: Acronym for Universal Serial Bus. USB is a plug-and-play serial bus standard to interface

devices to a host computer.

Wi-Fi: Wi-Fi is a mechanism of the wireless connecting electronic devices. A device enabled

with Wi-Fi including PC, video game console, can connect to the internet using a wireless

network access point.
